Then the irs gets a HUGE CUT from that. So your back to what you was making.This is not right. Hardworking people thats trying to pay there bills and then the IRS scams people out of there money. The IRS DOES NOTHING TO GET THIS MONEY FROM YOU. tHEY NEVER GET DIRTY. NEVER DO WORK THAT CAN HARM THEM. LIKE HIGHWAY WORKERS. COOKS.THERE IS WORKERS THAT WORK HARD EVERYDAY OF THE WEEK TO SEE OVER HALF THERE PAY GOES TO THE IRS…THE IRS DOES NOT REINVEST IT AND GIVE IT BACK FOR YOU TO RETIRE. My car motor stoped running and I had to pay in to the IRS 1000’s of dollars and I just went down to the IRS office and paid them what i owed them. The same week my cars motor had stoped and it needed repaires. So I called the IRS for help because I just paid them 1000’s of dollars can they help me. Because I just left there office. And the lady was mean she asked me did I no who i call this is the IRS we do not help people in need and stop calling. This lady was just mean over the phone. After I just paid 1000’s in to them and then they wanted to be jerks….So I have it out for the IRS you work hard and get hot and dirty and the IRS does nothing ,nothing,nothing..Other people alot older than me said they paid there money in and there ready to retire. But the IRS said that all the money that you paid us can’t be found. So you will have to retire when your older…THIS IS TRASH….OBAMA NEEDS TO CLOSE THE DOORS OF THE IRS. kids need to invest for school but how is this going to happen when the IRS takes all they make. Obama you have kids you will see.. Please stop this while you can..

Expenses have increased so much more than paychecks for years that we are now going to be behind forever. I thought my generation would be as well off as my parent’s. Only if you’re a company owner. Wage earners are slipping quickly into slavery. If we don’t tie the minimum wage to the cost of living in an area, and stop allowing companies to export and import foreign labor and paying more to lobbyists and CEO’s and industry political organizations than they do to their employees, the standard of living in America for the lower 70% will deteriorate even more, gutting the “American Dream.”

Tips are a private matter between the customer and the worker. Tipped workers should still get minimum wage. And no, I’m not one of them, I just think it’s not right for ANYONE to earn LESS than minimum wage. Tips are not a reliable source of income, and the employer has nothing to do with it. It’s traditional, but the person giving the tip is not required to do it, and they certainly don’t report it as wages paid to someone. It’s just wrong to decrease someone’s salary only because they MIGHT get a little something extra from a customer who liked their service.

To ME:
Maybe if americans weren’t lazy & would do the jobs immigrants would do, they wouldnt be jobless. No one is too good to go pick oranges or something. At least they’re doing something to help feed their families instead of mooching off the government.
